Olivia Amitrano — founder of Organic Olivia and now recording artist OLIVIA — returns to explore the art of reinvention, inner child healing, and overcoming the fear of the unknown. Olivia opens up about shedding the identity that built her success, rediscovering creativity through play, and learning to trust herself again after a period of deep change.

Hi friend! Have you ever noticed how fear shows up in marriage? It's not always loud or dramatic. Sometimes fear whispers. It looks like withholding how you really feel because you don't want to be misunderstood. It appears as distance, when avoiding a hard conversation feels safer than being vulnerable. Fear builds walls—quietly, slowly, and over time. But trust? Trust opens doors. Trust invites God to be the center. Trust turns two individuals into a team. In today's episode, we're talking about what it looks like to overcome fear together—not by trying harder, but by trusting God to guide your heart, your words, and your connection. Whether you're newlyweds or years into the journey, this conversation will help you move closer, communicate more honestly, and love more courageously. Let's grow in faith. Let's choose trust. ................................................................................................

This week's episode features Ben Carrey of Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, and I couldn't be more thrilled to share this with one with you!!  Pigeons is one of my favorite bands — I absolutely love their brand of rollicking, funky rock. Their jams are simply exquisite, and Ben drives this forward motion with his unique style on bass guitar.  Pigeons' eighth album, Feed The Fire is out now, and they're headed out on their Fall tour — catch them while you can!Ben is super thoughtful and a gentle and kind soul, and he talks to me about growing up a shy kid in Baltimore — and we discuss how Ben's unique (some may say unorthodox) style of playing has shaped the Pigeons signature sound. Ben is quite literary and very well read and we go down that rabbit hole a bit… with his love of Physics mixed in just for fun.Ben also talks to me about mental health and some of the challenges he faces. He's super open with a striking and honest self-awareness that is utterly refreshing.  This is an epic conversation with this talented artist, and I can't wait to share this one with you.=======================================Chapters:00:00 Episode Intro with Host Josh Rosenberg04:38  Introducing Ben Carrey07:17 Celebrating the New Album and Touring Experiences10:21 Collaboration with The Infamous Stringdusters13:15 Exploring Musical Influences and Techniques 16:08 Fretless Bass and Its Unique Qualities 19:10 Cultural Connections and Personal Reflections 22:11 Musical Relationships and Band Dynamics 25:03 The Science of Music and Connection 28:10 Growing Up and Family Ties 33:35 Nostalgia and Family Connections 35:39 The Power of Solitude and Self-Discovery 36:42 Literary Influences and Early Interests 39:38 The Fascination with Physics and Quantum Mechanics 43:49 The Intersection of Science and Spirituality 45:29 The Magic of Music and Sound 48:11 Musical Beginnings and the Journey to Bass 54:04 Overcoming Fear and Embracing Performance 55:46 Mental Health Challenges and the Music Industry 59:40 Finding Balance and Support in Music 01:04:03 Connecting with the Audience and Personal Growth 01:06:18 The Power of Connection and Community 01:08:36 Psychedelics and Mental Health 01:13:52 The Journey of Self-Discovery 01:17:31 The Significance of 'Hit the Ground Running' 01:20:27 Collaborative Evolution in Music 01:24:45 The Impact of Live Performances 01:27:51 Dome Fest and New Beginnings 01:31:32 Looking Ahead: Future Plans and Festivals=======================================For more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

In this heartfelt episode, Tara sits down with author, podcast host, and mom Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt to talk about the power of community in motherhood. Katherine shares how her journey as a new mom during the pandemic inspired her to launch the BDA Baby podcast, a space for honest conversations about parenting, connection, and the real challenges moms face. Together, they explore how finding community, both online and offline, can make motherhood feel a little less lonely and a lot more supported. Katherine also opens up about her new children's book, Kat and Brandy, inspired by her childhood pony. Through this story, she teaches children about overcoming fears, the healing bond between humans and animals, and the beauty of shared experiences between parents and children. She and Tara dive into how animals can offer unconditional love and emotional grounding for kids, especially in a world filled with so many distractions and pressures. Throughout their conversation, Katherine reminds moms that it's okay not to balance everything perfectly and that social media often sets unrealistic expectations. She encourages embracing imperfection, leaning into kindness, and supporting local gems like neighborhood bookstores. As she heads out on her book tour, Katherine leaves listeners with a powerful reminder: community and compassion are at the heart of both motherhood and storytelling.

Transcript:Hu: A Budapest Tudományos Múzeum november elején különösen nyüzsgő volt.En: The Budapest Tudományos Múzeum was particularly bustling at the beginning of November.Hu: Az őszi levelek aranyszínűre festették a várost, és a diákok mindenfelé izgatottan fedezték fel a technológiai és természet kiállításokat.En: The autumn leaves painted the city in golden hues, and students excitedly explored the technology and nature exhibits everywhere.Hu: Az iskolai kirándulás napját arra az időszakra időzítették, amikor a múzeumban ünnepi programok is zajlottak, hiszen közeledett a mindenszentek napja.En: The school trip was scheduled for a period when there were festive programs at the museum, as All Saints' Day was approaching.Hu: Árpád, egy csendes, de kíváncsi fiú, lassan lépett be a nagy kapun.En: Árpád, a quiet but curious boy, slowly stepped through the large gate.Hu: Árpád a tudomány megszállottja volt.En: Árpád was obsessed with science.Hu: Mindig is álmodott arról, hogy egyszer tudósként dolgozik, mégis, a diáktársai között gyakran érezte magát magányosan.En: He always dreamed of working as a scientist one day, yet among his classmates, he often felt lonely.Hu: A közösségi helyzetek kihívást jelentettek számára.En: Social situations posed challenges for him.Hu: Eszter, az osztálytársa, nem volt ezzel így.En: Eszter, his classmate, was not like this.Hu: Vidám és energikus lányként mindenkivel szót értett.En: As a cheerful and energetic girl, she got along with everyone.Hu: Árpád már régóta remélte, hogy talál módot arra, hogy barátokat szerezzen, de félelmei mindig útjába álltak.En: Árpád had long hoped to find a way to make friends, but his fears always stood in the way.Hu: Zoltán tanár úr, a csoport vezetője, szeretett magával ragadó történeteket mesélni a tudományos csodákról.En: Zoltán tanár úr, the group leader, loved to tell captivating stories about scientific wonders.Hu: Ő is észrevette Árpád zárkózottságát, és aggódott érte.En: He also noticed Árpád's introversion and worried about him.Hu: Azelőtt sose sikerült közel kerülnie a gyerekhez, pedig úgy érezte, Árpádnak sok mondanivalója lenne.En: He had never managed to get close to the child, although he felt Árpád had a lot to say.Hu: A csoport végül megérkezett a vulkánok kiállításához.En: Eventually, the group arrived at the volcano exhibit.Hu: Az interaktív bemutatón egy laboráns megmutatta, hogyan tör ki egy miniatűr vulkán.En: During the interactive demonstration, a lab technician showed how a miniature volcano erupts.Hu: Árpád figyelt, de észrevett valamit, amit a bemutató során kihagytak.En: Árpád watched, but noticed something that was left out of the demonstration.Hu: A gyomra összeszorult, és hezitált.En: His stomach tightened, and he hesitated.Hu: Tudja, hogy el kellene mondania.En: He knew he should speak up.Hu: Ekkor Eszter felé fordult, aki érdeklődve figyelte a vulkánt.En: Then he turned to Eszter, who was watching the volcano intently.Hu: "Ez... valszuleg azért tör ki így, mert a nyomás miatt fölgyülemlik a magma," mondta Árpád halkan, de határozottan.En: "This... probably erupts like this because the magma accumulates due to pressure," said Árpád softly but firmly.Hu: Minden szem rászegeződött.En: All eyes were on him.Hu: Erőt merített magából, és folytatta.En: He gathered his strength and continued.Hu: „A magma a földkéreg belsejéből jön, és ha a nyomás elég nagy lesz, kitör...” magyarázta.En: "The magma comes from inside the Earth's crust, and when the pressure becomes high enough, it erupts..." he explained.Hu: Az érdeklődő tekintetek ösztönözték.En: The interested gazes encouraged him.Hu: Eszter mosolyogva bólogatott, és kérdéseket tett fel.En: Eszter nodded with a smile and asked

was covered with heavy clouds.Da: Freja tog en dyb indånding, da hun stod foran den store skolebygning.En: Freja took a deep breath as she stood in front of the large school building.Da: Det var valgdagen, og hun vidste, hvor vigtigt det var at få sin stemme hørt.En: It was election day, and she knew how important it was to have her voice heard.Da: Da hun trådte ind i gymnastiksalen, blev hun mødt af et virvar af lyde.En: As she stepped into the gymnasium, she was greeted by a chaos of sounds.Da: Mennesker stod i lange køer, lysene skinnede skarpt ned fra loftet, og lyden af folk, der snakkede, frembragte et konstant, summende lydtæppe.En: People stood in long lines, the lights shone brightly down from the ceiling, and the sound of people talking created a constant humming backdrop.Da: Freja begyndte at mærke den velkendte knude af angst i maven.En: Freja began to feel the familiar knot of anxiety in her stomach.Da: Lige ved sin side stod hendes ven Lukas.En: Right beside her stood her friend Lukas.Da: Han gav hende et opmuntrende smil.En: He gave her an encouraging smile.Da: "Du klarer det her, Freja.En: "You've got this, Freja.Da: Jeg er lige her," sagde han beroligende.En: I'm right here," he said soothingly.Da: Freja nikkede, men hendes hænder rystede en smule, da hun krammede sin stemmeseddel.En: Freja nodded, but her hands shook slightly as she clutched her ballot.Da: Mens de stillede sig i køen, skød angsten igen op i hende, og hendes syn blev sløret.En: As they queued, the anxiety surged up in her again, and her vision blurred.Da: Alt omkring hende virkede overvældende, og hendes hjerte slog hurtigere.En: Everything around her seemed overwhelming, and her heart beat faster.Da: Et øjeblik føltes det, som om der ikke var nok luft i rummet.En: For a moment, it felt as though there wasn't enough air in the room.Da: Mikkel, en opmærksom medarbejder ved afstemningsstedet, bemærkede Frejas uro.En: Mikkel, a perceptive employee at the

kindly.Da: Freja kiggede på ham, overrasket over hans venlighed.En: Freja looked at him, surprised by his kindness.Da: "Jeg har lidt angst... det er bare ret overvældende," indrømmede hun stille.En:

take your time.Da: Hvis du vil, kan jeg vise dig til et roligere sted, hvor du kan stemme."En: If you want, I can show you to a quieter place where you can vote."Da: Freja tog en dyb indånding igen.En: Freja took a deep breath again.Da: Med Lukas ved sin side og Mikkels hjælp, følte hun sig lidt mere tryg.En: With Lukas by her side and Mikkel's help, she felt a bit more secure.Da: "Ja, det ville være rigtig rart, tak," svarede hun med et lille smil.En: "Yes, that would be really nice, thank you," she replied with a small smile.Da: Mikkel førte dem til et lille lokale i nærheden af gymnastiksalen.En: Mikkel led them to a small room near the gymnasium.Da: Her var det stille, og belysningen var dæmpet.En: Here it was quiet, and the lighting was dimmed.Da: Det var meget mere behageligt for Freja.En: It was much more comfortable for Freja.Da: Hun satte sig ved bordet, og med Lukas' rolige tilstedeværelse ved hendes side, udfyldte hun sin stemmeseddel.En: She sat at the table, and with Lukas' calm presence by her side, she filled out her ballot.Da: Da hun endelig puttede sin stemmeseddel i boksen, følte Freja en bølge af lettelse og stolthed skylle over sig.En: When she finally placed her ballot into the box, Freja felt a wave of relief and pride wash over her.Da: Hun havde gjort det.En: She had done it.Da: Til trods for sin angst, havde hun opfyldt sin borgerpligt.En: Despite her anxiety, she had fulfilled her civic duty.Da: "Hvor er jeg glad for, at du stemte," sagde Lukas, da de gik ud af den stille zone.En: "I'm so glad you voted," Lukas said as they exited the quiet zone.Da: "Jeg også," sagde Freja med et mere beslutsomt smil.En: "Me too," said Freja with a more resolute smile.Da: Hun vidste nu, at hun kunne overvinde sine bekymringer med støtte fra venner og venlige fremmede som Mikkel.En: She now knew that she could overcome her worries with the support of friends and kind strangers like Mikkel.Da: Det gav hende mod og tro på fremtiden.En: It gave her courage and faith in the future.Da: Da de forlod bygningen, bemærkede hun igen bladene, der blev ført af efterårsvinden.En: As they left the building, she once more noticed the leaves carried by the autumn wind.Da: Denne gang føltes de som et symbol på hendes egen styrke og bevægelse fremad.En: This time, they felt like a symbol of her own strength and movement forward.
